Demystifying the role of MMP9 and TIMP-1 as markers of lung imaging and functional abnormality of COVID-19.
J Infect Dev Ctries
December 2024
Department of Pulmonary and Respiratory Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Airlangga, Surabaya, Indonesia.
Introduction: This study aimed to analyze the levels of MMP-9 and TIMP-1 as biomarkers for identifying lung anatomical and functional abnormalities in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
Methodology: Adult COVID-19 patients hospitalized between October and December 2021 were included in the study. MMP-9 and TIMP-1 levels were measured from the blood.
Warrick score in rheumatoid-arthritis interstitial lung disease: a promising tool for assessing the extent and progression of lung involvement.
Adv Rheumatol
January 2025
Division of Rheumatology, Department of Internal Medicine, Kocaeli University Faculty of Medicine, İzmit, Kocaeli, 41380, Turkey.
Background: The clinical manifestations and course of rheumatoid arthritis-associated interstitial lung disease (RA-ILD) exhibits considerable heterogeneity. In this study, we aimed to explore radiographic progression over a defined period, employing the Warrick score as a semi-quantitative measure in early RA-ILD, and to assess the associated risk factors for progression.
Methods: RA-ILD patients underwent consecutive Warrick scoring based on initial high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) at diagnosis and the first follow-up.
The association between Chlamydia pneumoniae infection and prognosis in lung cancer patients: a prospective study.
BMC Infect Dis
January 2025
Department of Epidemiology and Health Statistics, School of Public Health, Fujian Medical University, Fuzhou, China.
Background: The prognostic value of Chlamydia pneumoniae (Cpn) infection in postoperative lung cancer patients remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the association between Cpn infection and survival in lung cancer patients.
Methods: This study included 309 newly diagnosed primary lung cancer patients from three hospitals in Fuzhou, China.
Association between triglyceride glucose index and adverse cardiovascular prognosis in patients with atrial fibrillation without diabetes: a retrospective cohort study.
Lipids Health Dis
January 2025
Department of Cardiology, West China Hospital, Sichuan University West China School of Medicine, 37 Guoxue Road, Chengdu, Sichuan, 610041, China.
Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most prevalent arrhythmia encountered in clinical practice. Triglyceride glucose index (Tyg), a convenient evaluation variable for insulin resistance, has shown associations with adverse cardiovascular outcomes. However, studies on the Tyg index's predictive value for adverse prognosis in patients with AF without diabetes are lacking.

Metabolomics
January 2025
Department of Biostatistics, Epidemiology and Informatics, Perelman School of Medicine, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA, USA.
Background: Gestational exposure to non-persistent endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) may be associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes. While many EDCs affect the endocrine system, their effects on endocrine-related metabolic pathways remain unclear. This study aims to explore the global metabolome changes associated with EDC biomarkers at delivery.
